TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH, THE BALL BEARINGS BECAME DETACHED ON THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE.

THIS IS THE SECOND JEEP LIBERTY I HAVE OWNED AND IN THE PAST 2 YEARS I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE EVERY WINDOW REGULATOR IN BOTH OF THEM. FROM WHAT I HAVE READ ONLINE, THIS IS AN ON-GOING SITUATION. ONE WINDOW REGULATOR I HAD FIXED A YEAR AGO JUST BROKE AGAIN YESTERDAY. I WORK AT A PRISON AND MY VEHICLE MUST REMAIN LOCKED AND SECURE AT ALL TIMES OR I CANNOT DRIVE IT TO WORK, AND IT IS A HEADACHE WONDERING IF THE TEMPORARILY TAPED UP WINDOW (UNTIL THE PART COMES IN) WILL FALL DOWN INTO THE DOOR AND I CANNOT DRIVE IT UNTIL IT IS FIXED. PLEASE RECALL THESE THINGS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2003 JEEP LIBERTY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING WHILE SHE DROVE AT APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH. THE FAILURE WAS EXPERIENCED SEVERAL TIMES.

MY DEALER HAS FAILED TO REMEDY A SAFETY DEFECT (RECALL) WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME. *TR

MY COMPLAINT IS THAT I HAVE RECEIVED NOTICE OF RECALL 13V-252. THE FIX FOR THIS RECALL IS TO INSTALL A NEW TRAILER HITCH ON MY CAR. NOW I NEED A HITCH ON MY CAR FOR RECREATIONAL USE SO I CALL TO SEE IF I HAVE A HITCH INSTALLED WILL I BE REIMBURSED AND WAS TOLD THAT MY REIMBURSEMENT IS NOT GUARANTEE. THEY DO NOT HAVE PARTS THEY WILL NOT REIMBURSE HOW CAN I GET MY CAR FIX. *JS

THE FUEL TANK ON YOUR VEHICLE HAS A SMALL CHANCE OF EXPERIENCING A FUEL LEAK DURING CERTAIN TYPES OF REAR END COLLISIONS. FUEL LEAKAGE IN THE PRESENCE OF AN IGNITION SOURCE CAN RESULT IN AN UNDERBODY FIRE. IT HAS BEEN ALMOST A YEAR THAT I HAVE RECEIVE A SAFETY RECALL. I HAVE CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME I HAVE TO WAIT FOR CHRYSLER TO SEND ANOTHER NOTICE. ARE THEY WAITING FOR MY NINE YEAR OLD GRANDCHILD TO GET KILLED BEFORE THEY SEND ME ANOTHER NOTICE THAT THE PARTS ARE IN. *JS

I HAVE KNOWN 2 OTHER PEOPLE WITH THIS ISSUE, I HAVE BEEN THE ONLY ONE WITH FIRE. MY JEEP IS LEAKING OIL FROM THE ENGINE SEAL THAT IS JUST ABOVE THE PASSENGER SIDE UPSTREAM EXHAUST (RIGHT BEFORE THE PASSENGER SIDE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. I SMELLED BURNING OIL AND I GOT UNDER THE CAR AND THERE WAS A SMALL FIRE WHICH I EXTINGUISHED WITH MY RAG. THE PROBLEM IS ALSO A HUGE HEALTH ISSUE. IF YOU ARE STOPPED AT A LIGHT, OR STOP SIGN AND HAVE THE HEAT OR A/C ON. THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE BECOMES FILLED WITH THE BURNING SMELL. SMOKE BELLOWS OUT FROM UNDER THE VEHICLE AT THESE STOPS ALSO. I AM AFRAID OF THE THING BURSTING INTO FLAMES AT A LIGHT AND BEING HELPLESS. I KNOW 2 OTHER PEOPLE THAT HAVE THIS EXACT ISSUE. ONE OF THEM GOT RID OF THEIR VEHICLE, THE OTHER STILL HAS IT. THIS IS A MAJOR DEFECT THAT WILL RESULT IN FIRE, OR AS I SEE IT CANCER DUE TO THE SMOKE ENTERING THE VEHICLE. I HAVE TO CLEAN THE OIL SATURATED AREA AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK. *TR
